+
+vrehash + + + +
+
+This program is designed to be run after the sysadmin has changed the
+user-dir-bits or user-dir-slices configuration variables. It creates a new users directory called new.users, where users
+is the configured name of the user directory. It then traverses the
+password table, creates a new user directory name for each user, and moves
+the user's mail directory to the new directory name, creating any necessary
+directories as it goes. Any alias entries in the password table are copied
+as-is.
+
+
+
+Returns 1 if any part of the process fails; 0 otherwise. + +
+
+When the process is completed, a the old users directory will have been
+moved to backup.users. If no errors occurred, you should be able to safely delete this directory
+and all its subdirectories. Check this directory first, though, to ensure
+that no important files remain.
+
+
+
+This program is not particularly careful to clean up after itself if an
+error occurs. If an error occurs, you will have to check the status of the
+current directory, the virtual password file, and all the virtual users
+subdirectories in both users and new.users.
